I also use some commercial win64 VSTs from Plugin Alliance/Brainworks that way and these work like a breathe now do you have any issues with the GUI of EZDrummer (flashes/redraw issues) at all ? I’d love to find a solution for that, unless Toontrack releases a Linux version some day, but I doubt that will happen. I’m using Wine version 4.7 and mainly Harrison Mixbus where I can use EZDrummer with the LinVST bridge. Found no solution for that, but I must say recent versions of Wine have been pretty amazing: EZDrummer, EZKeys and even the Toontrack Product Manager and registration process now install and work fine, with the default Wine install and no winetricks at all. The audio part works great, it’s only some GUI glitches that can be annoying when initially working on a drum track (song creator or kit view). You have great products, and I’m delighted they are so effortlessly compatible with native Linux music production.Ī Linux port (even in beta) would be so awesome! I’ve been using EZDrummer and EZKeys under Linux via Wine for a while and it’s 99% usable. Personally, the only thing I’d ask of Toontrack now is that they publish this information somewhere, so other potential customers – those looking for good tools to support music production in Linux – know how to make them usable. The four steps I noted above should work for anyone, at least in Linux Mint and I guess the various Ubuntu flavours (I can’t speak for distros based on anything other than Debian,or using different window managers etc). As a result I’ll be buying EZMix2 and some expansion packs.īased on my experience with EZDrummer2 and now EZMix2, Toontrack products are already Linux compatible. I had no buffering issues or CPU performance problems, or skips, or indeed any negatives at all. I tested a lot of the demo options, put half a dozen instances on a song which has thirty tracks and a lot of existing plugins in the native Linux build of REAPER. I want to add that I’ve today downloaded the EZMix2 demo and installed it in Linux using the above steps and, like EZDrummer2, it just works. We don’t want Mac, we want linux.Īlso, as a software-developer myself, i offer my freelance-service for porting □ I and probably many others don’t need an add-ridden, unstable OS. Since there will be effort necessary to perform this conversion, why not use the opportunity and do the right thing? PORT LINUX! to enforce their “Universal Windows Platform” (UWP) which kind of makes sense but also forces developers to convert their software to the new platform. Windows gathers information about everything you do and shares that information with thirds for their profit and allegedly for a better user experience which i think nobody using windows as a work/production-system has. shutdown the system at least once a month while working and won’t let me do sh#!* for at least an hour. Firstly, the first two outputs on the pin-out diagram are the stereo feed for the instrument. There are a few steps and conventions you want to be aware of when pushing these outputs separately across Mixbus. If you disallow this behavior the updates will reset it for shure. In other words, when EZDrummer says 'out1', it actually indicates channel output pins 1&2. arbitrary delete my drivers, because Windows knows better than you what you want. Windows 10, which is pretty much the only windows one will be able to use in a few months, is becoming more and more unusable as a production-system.
